attended by some of the most esteemed personalities from India’s art
world and government, Routes 2 Roots has witnessed an overwhelming
response from schools across the country. The demand for these books
is at an all-time high, as schools are eager to incorporate them
into their libraries. The books, which offer in-depth exploration of
these classical art forms, are quickly becoming essential resources
for students interested in India’s rich cultural traditions.
Not only are these books a valuable asset for aspiring artistes, but
they also serve as comprehensive guides for anyone seeking a
foundational understanding of Indian art and culture. The books are
in high demand as educational institutions align with the National
